50 Cent, Vivica A. Fox and Judge Greg Mathis are embroiled in a back and forth about a new BMF project.
According to Hip Hop DX, 50 Cent called out Fox for directing The First Lady of BMF: The Tonesa Welch Story. Mathis is also listed as an executive producer. As Shadow and Act reported, the BET+ film will tell the true story of Welch, who rose from the squalor of 1980s Detroit to become a drug queenpin.

50 Cent wrote alluded on Instagram in a now-deleted post that his ex-girlfriend’s decision to direct the film was an attempt to not leave him alone.
“This should say 263 not BMF, @southwest263,” he wrote, referencing Terry Flenory and suggesting that Welch is the leader of the organization 263, not BMF. “What the fvck is this man!…Vivica ugh, So [you’re] not gonna ever leave me alone hun? and what the fvck is judge Mathis doing in this mix[.] I’m done, Im done with all of you ni66as.

“The first lady of BMF. You know I know Lala’s doing a hell ofa job–but y’all haven’t fed Toni. I’m from Detroit, and they’re from Detroit–that’s how I’m involved. These are Detroiters, man. We cut from the same cloth. I respect you man–I respect your work. Now, let us get some money.”

Mathis referencing Lala Anthony is because of Anthony’s turn as Markisha Taylor on 50 Cent-produced Starz series BMF, a character based on Welch, but has been called out by fans and Welch herself because Markisha’s storyline has her in a relationship with Flenory (played by Da’Vinchi), who is still in high school at the time of the story.
